O’Donovan named Cork County Board’s first administrator

Diarmuid O’Donovan was last night appointed as administrator of the Cork County Board.

As revealed in yesterday’s Irish Examiner, the county’s 2001 All-Ireland minor football winning manager takes up the newly-formed role where he will work alongside secretary Frank Murphy.

O’Donovan’s duties will include areas such as fixture planning, day-to-day responsibility for inter-county teams, responsibility for full-time coaching staff and liaising with the Munster Council.
